Abstract

Cette invention concerne une cellule de mémoire à porte flottante (10) dont la porte flottante comporte deux couches de porte flottante (18, 22). La couche supérieure (22) est gravée selon un contour qui laisse intacte la couche inférieure (18). La porte de commande (38) épouse le contour de la porte flottante (22), ce qui augmente la capacitance entre ces deux portes. Les deux couches (18, 22) de la porte flottante peuvent être séparées par une couche d'arrêt gravée très mince en polysilicium (20). Cette couche d'arrêt gravée (20) est suffisamment épaisse pour arrêter la gravure du polysilicium, tout en étant de préférence assez mince pour être transparente électriquement. Les électrons peuvent se déplacer librement entre les deux couches (22, 18). Ainsi, la gravure de la couche supérieure (22) ne pénètre pas dans la couche inférieure (18), mais les première (18) et seconde (22) couches agissent, pour une porte flottante, comme une couche conductrice continue.
